YOU, sweetie, are the one misinformed, as stated in a previous post, the infared that the piggies use detects infared REFLECTION, which is a type of heat (i.e. warm spectrum, cool spectrum) when the choppers are flying, they are primarily looking for OUTDOOR GROW OPS. not indoor. this is why they fly twice a year, late spring and fall; harvest season (yeah, i know; the bastards...)
love, kp

This is the science lesson of the day

Dark side is correct!!! The heat your talking about is called Radiant heat, which again is just a E.M. wave. And this is used to catch the hot indoor grow lights.

As I said b4, they use the reflectance signature of cannabis to detect them outdoors. It??s like a thumb print that every type of plant has. Infrared is a part of the Reflectance, as is every part of the E.M. spectrum.

A type of heat? not really. Heat energy is what causes atoms to vibrate, and it??s not what were talking about. Heat energy creates infrared waves.

What we are really talking about is electromagnetic waves. ??Heat waves? ??light waves??, radio, micro, and some forms of radiation are all the same thing.

When the waves are long, we call them heat waves (or infrared radiation which means below red)
When we can see them, light waves.
When they??re so small they??ll knock the electrons off your DNA we call them Ultraviolet Radiation (which means above Violate)
